I think that I had trying to make Config.pm less heavy in my TODO. as a start, I was considering surveying which values in %Config are popular, to try to partition those from the vast majority, which are deadweight in nearly every program. As %Config is a tied hash, I believe that it can all be done transparently. Nicholas ClarkThread Previous | Thread Next
